Know you were the angel
Who played my lullabies
As I drifted off to sleep
In dreams of a child
Then I'd gently waken
To your softest words
And start the day filled with
The music I'd heard
Oh my Father
Your blood in my veins
Oh my [A]Father
You showed me the way
To love and [Bm]learn and [Bm]be [Am]concerned
And never give up faith
Now there comes a time
When one decides
The path he must take
And it isn't always easy
When the ways separate
I couldn't bear your leaving
And it hurt to [C7]see you [A7sad
But I know you'll always love me
Cause you'll always be [Am]my [A]dad
Oh my [A]Father
Your blood in my [A]veins
Oh my [A]Father
You showed me the way
To love and [Bm]learn and [Bm]be [Am]concerned
And never give up faith
Now we sit and [Bm]ɾead together
Just breathing the same air
Now and [Bm]then you'll ɾead aloud
A part you [A7want to [C7]share
Or maybe [Am]we'll be [Am]walking
You always lead the way
Not worried if I'm keeping up
You know I'll find my [A]way
Oh my [A]Father
Your blood in my [A]veins
Oh my [A]Father
You showed me the way
To love and [Bm]learn and [Bm]be [Am]concerned
And never give up faith
